I was a 12 year account with nearly one million Karma, when I was permabanned in the post-Inauguration purge, for a comment I had made numerous times without an issue.
We were the people that built Reddit. When I started, nobody had heard of it. When I was "fired," it was one of the biggest websites in the world. It had become a cesspool of puns, trolls, bots, MAGA dickheads, Russian Propaganda Farmers, novelty accounts, and worse. It was already difficult to navigate to actual comments on some subs. Now that they have permabanned so many highly active active accounts, the problems has worsened significantly.
Lemmy is great, and I can speak more openly, although the mods are a little free with the removal tools. I miss some of the niche subs, like the guitar subs. The guitar community on Reddit is great, and very supportive of players. I wish Lemmy had that.
